sorry this is always how it goes

[remorsesuggestion]

I rue far too petty and far too many things, it has made me indecisive even in the simplest choices. Now I regret the hesitance that fills me; since I couldn't decide, I chose to do nothing at all, I formed a shell out of what could have been a beautiful person.

[remorsesuggestion]

can you forgive me for not being able to admit that I believe you deserve a world without me in it?

when you are forced to face yourself you will have to learn how to forgive the part of you that you hate, or change it to bring it closer to you.

Minnesota National Guard is armed and carrying ammunition

Soldiers from the Minnesota Army National Guard are armed and carrying ammunition, after the FBI informed the head of the Minnesota National Guard of a "credible lethal threat," which directly named that guard.

James Scurlock, a 22 year old black man, was peacefully protesting in Omaha last night before he was murdered. A GoFundMe has been set up for James’ family.

[sortafemme-deactivated20200726]

The man who murdered James Scurlock is named Jake Gardner. He is the owner of a downtown Omaha bar called The Hive. He’s a known transphobe and racist. Jake Gardner was yelling racial slurs before and during the murder. There was a video taken of the incident by another protester. Jake Gardner was held by police for just two hours before being released from custody without bail. As of the afternoon of 5/31 police are outside of his bar protecting him and his business, while Gardner sits out on the patio. https://fbatimes.com/2020/05/a-known-suspected-white-supremacist-in-omaha-named-jake-gardner-killed-a-black-youth/

so direct action is not an option available to you. what can you do right now instead?

Be mindful of the content you’re putting on your social media accounts. Stop retweeting/reposting violent images and videos of black people dying. Know that content like this, even with trigger warnings included, can be very emotionally disturbing/distressing and yes, even traumatic, for black people navigating the internet right now.

Report any images and videos you see where protestors’ faces are visible/unblurred, particularly in content surrounding the lootings. Don’t retweet or repost these images and videos. This can be a death sentence.

That link goes to the website with reading which is great! I encourage y'all to read up, but it wouldn't load well on my phone for whatever reason.

Here's the Direct Link to the donation page to send money fast.

I gave $20 to the Minneapolis protesters’ bail fund, and I’d encourage all of my followers able to do so to do the same!

I'm a volatile mess and every choice I make seems terribly regrettably wrong

[remorsesuggestion]

I said something I didn't mean again. Your face and my heart fell together; It was the only closeness we've had since my words warped to fight my thoughts.
